Apps that I know:

  • For images - Pocketpaint, Freepaint
    Fossify Gallery has a basic editor with draw, crop and filters. Tux paint is also nice to draw stuff.
  • For video
    • Video transcoder allows basic cutting of audio n video.
    • Saw an app called Bunny media editor, that allowed basic image and video cropping and cutting.
    • I've also heard that some people use Termux for it

Are there other apps like these?
Which all apps do you use to edit images/videos and make memes etc?

Haven't tried making memes, but this is a very powerful image editing app: https://github.com/T8RIN/ImageToolbox

Thank you.

Isn't it mostly aimed at compression and file conversion?
I've used it when I learnt about jpegxl.

I really like the filter selection. It's the only open source app I know of that lets me blur images and that's pretty much all photo editing I do on my phone.

Fossify Gallery includes some basic editing

FFShare works nicely for reducing file sizes, but I wish it was more forgiving and did the conversion in the background. More than once I waited through the conversion and then accidentally closed it.

Termux also works well. Some tips:

  • change the shell to something like Fish. Autocomplete helps a lot when typing on mobile
  • set up some aliases for common commands

Image editor

  • Fossify Gallery
  • Snapseed (not FOSS, works without Google stuff with disabled Internet)
  • Krita (UI only for tablets, complex, not very good for editing)

Image compression

  • Signal/Signal-FOSS/Molly (just send to some person but save before sending and exit, saves as JPEG with removed EXIF and very compressed)
  • ImagePipe
  • ffshare (pretty weak compression)
  • image toolbox (and other conversion)

Video cutting

  • again, Signal (left-right cutting, compression, metadata)
  • ffshare (compression)
  • open video editor (strange UI, no more features than Signal)

Video editing

  • open video editor:
